MTL - Estranged-Chapter 67 You really have entered the magic gate!
From the first night when Xu Jingxian came to Luodu, she was rushed to work by Chang Ming before she had time to take a look at the bustling city.
If the Langhuan Pagoda is the center of the circle and the entire Luodu is the formation, then there will be hidden piles in the four directions of Luodu. As the Langhuan Pagoda in the middle of the guards on all sides, they will cooperate and play a role at any time, so that all Luodu will fall into it. Control, this is Chang Ming's guess, and Xu Jingxian is responsible for finding these four hidden piles.
But easier said than done?
Luodu is the largest capital in the world, and it was also rebuilt on the site of the former capital of the former dynasty. The distances between the southeast, the north, and the west outside the city are very large, and the area is wide. Xu Jingxian alone is like finding a needle in a haystack, and it is difficult to do it in one day.
She had thought she would return empty-handed.
The current Xu Jingxian has nothing in his hands, no magic weapon, only a talisman painted on the palm of his hand.
Chang Ming told her that as long as she looked around outside the city and encountered something suspicious, the talisman would become hot and give her an early warning. If Xu Jingxian was lucky, she might meet her own chance.
Xu Jingxian was dubious, only thinking that the other party wanted to let her work.
She didn't dare to blatantly resist. It's okay to be passive and lazy behind the scenes. Xu Jingxian first went to the West Market for a stroll. It was still early and there were no shops open in the West Market. There are two small inns along the official road, and there is a teahouse outside. It was not too late at that time, and there were people coming and going. The stewed donkey meat that had just been baked floated out with the action of the teahouse staff lifting the lid, and Xu Jingxian was stopped at once. .
During this stay, when Xu Jingxian approached the teahouse, she found that the talisman in her palm was indeed slightly hot. When she looked down, the talisman seemed to be still glowing.
"I searched for a long time, only to find that there is a half-palm-sized pillar in the center of the teahouse. The lower half is buried below, and the upper half is like a dead wood. It is used as an ordinary pillar for tying ropes to stabilize the teahouse. It rained a few days ago, and the soil has somewhat Loosen, revealing a small piece of dragon sculpture buried in the soil, I found this thing weird at the time."
She then used a pair of compass brought along from Fang Suihan, and the location of the teahouse happened to be due west of Luanghuan Pagoda.
But the process of destroying the pillars was not so smooth. Although the owner of the teahouse and the customers were all ordinary people, Xu Jingxian could get rid of it with a sum of money. According to her former style of acting as a demon cultivator and witch, she might even save this money, but Xu Jingxian looked around, only to find a monk among the crowd.
It is not uncommon for monks in Luodu, but what is strange is that the nun sits in the tea room, refilling cup after cup of tea in front of her, as if waiting for someone.
"I guess, she didn't know who she was waiting for, whether she could wait for someone, but she just followed the order to stay there, but she didn't expect to wait for me."
Xu Jingxian spoke more and more slowly, hoping that Chang Ming would show some kindness to her, so she continued, but before Chang Ming opened his mouth, Yun Hai became impatient.
"Long story short!"
Dog man, if I can't beat you...
Xu Jingxian cursed secretly again, but dared not speak out.
A person who knows the current affairs is a hero. She had already mastered it when she was under Zhou Ke, and she also learned when to shut up and when to flatter the horse to make the suzerain feel comfortable. With her ability, she was naturally promoted not as fast as her.
Many people think that in the Demon Gate, one must step on the bones of others to walk up step by step. Naturally, ruthless shots are necessary for Demon Cultivators, but observing words and colors and learning when to say what to say is the secret to success.
Pulling away, Xu Jingxian pulled her thoughts back against Yunhai's murderous eyes.
"I didn't know until I started that the opponent was from Feixian Island in the South China Sea, and his cultivation level is not low. It is conservatively estimated that he must have a higher level."
If it were Xu Jingxian who hadn't raised real grass before, the difference between the two of them was almost the same, and it might not be possible to decide the winner in a short time, but Xu Jingxian who came out of Jiuchongyuan is not what it used to be, and his cultivation has broken through the bottleneck. If it's a fake master, the other party probably didn't expect Xu Jingxian to be so powerful, and he was quickly controlled.
Not only that, Xu Jingxian also used Momen's unique mind-controlling spell to dig out the opponent's details, took the magic weapon on the opponent's body as his own, and learned the whereabouts of the other three directions without any effort.
"I also found the two dragon pillars in the north and south one after another. One was on the hillside and the other was in a private house. I tried to destroy them. The female cultivator of the Feixian School said that there were people guarding everywhere, but instead Her cultivation base is the lowest here, and her defense is the weakest, but for some reason in the past two days, it is said that powerful people have come to Luodu, and the people from the north and the south have been transferred to deal with it. Longzhu is in the imperial mausoleum, and there is a formidable person inside, who is the highest among the four of them, I dare not go there rashly, so I will come back first to deal with business."
After Xu Jingxian finished speaking, he let out a long breath, showing a weak and weak look, waiting for Chang Ming to give him some benefits.
The other one, she didn't count on it anyway.
Unexpectedly, Chang Ming glanced at her sleeve and said, "Your new treasure is not bad."
Xu Jingxian: ...
She didn't show a little bit at all, how did the other party know!
The female cultivator of the Feixian sect also used gauze silk. Although it is not as good as the East China Sea shark silk, it is also made of rare shark skin. Xu Jingxian was worried that she did not have a weapon at hand. This female cultivator undoubtedly gave her a pillow when she saw that she was dozing off. Come on, there is no reason for Xu Jingxian to let it go, she immediately took it as her own, and regarded it as a small reward for running around for so many days.
"We are leaving in two days. You need to send someone to deal with the Dragon Pillar in the imperial mausoleum in the east, otherwise it may become a new hidden danger in the future."
Chang Ming said this to Ku He and the others.
The imperial mausoleum is not only the place where all the emperors of each dynasty are buried, but also carries the feng shui of a dynasty. Judging from the words of the female cultivators of the Feixian sect, the dragon pillars in the imperial mausoleum may be the most difficult.
"Senior, I don't understand one thing. Since the evil things in the Langhuan Pagoda have been destroyed, and there is only one hidden stake left, how can the other party cause trouble? The dragon is the symbol of the emperor Luo Chao. , why did you choose to use the dragon pillar?"
Before Chang Ming showed his hand, Xie Chunxi was convinced, asking such a question was not to find fault, but to clear up doubts.
Demons roam the world and appear occasionally, but for so many years, most people have dealt with them very little. They only hear their names but never see their shadows. Confidence was almost crushed, and only then did everyone realize that the shadow of the demon had penetrated into it unknowingly, and its roots were deep and leafy.
Among other things, Princess Zhaoyue was possessed by a monster. Is it a coincidence that the monster took a fancy to the identity of the princess, or was it because someone in the harem before Zhaoyue had a connection with the monster.
And the envoys of You Kingdom and King Hui are planning to attack together from inside and outside, is there any other force at their side?
These things cannot be investigated in a short while.
Not to mention the Empress Dowager Luo Chao, even monks like Xie Chunxi and the others would inevitably feel that the road ahead was vast and uncertain.
"Although the monsters in the Langhuan Pagoda came out, it is impossible to destroy the built pagoda. As long as the pagoda is still there, it will be a nail buried in Luodu's heart." Chang Ming said.
There are deep wrinkles between Ku He's brows.
"Is it feasible if the tower is destroyed?"
"Going to the pagoda is only the first step, and the dragon pillars in the imperial tomb must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise the Langhuan Pagoda and the imperial tomb are connected at two points, and the disaster can still be restarted. One month later, there will be five stars in the sky. The formation on the ground, Langhuan Pagoda, and the hidden piles on all sides of Luodu are also five points. When it is activated at that time, it will get twice the result with half the effort, but it will be destroyed in advance. The opponent is a master of array formation, and his ability is not inferior to mine. How will it go."
Chang Ming has never underestimated Jiang Li. If the opponent was not capable, he would not have forced him to jump into the pit knowing that there was a pit ahead decades ago.
This game of chess between the two sides has been played from fifty years ago to the present. At first, the enemy was dark and we were clear, and Chang Ming lost the wind, but as time passed, Jiang Li's trump card was gradually revealed.
Vientiane Palace, Xiao Zangfeng, demons, the other party can use less and less, and Chang Ming knows more and more.
If there was enough time, the Eight Treasures Langhuan Pagoda should have been more perfectly arranged. Xiao Zangfeng, as Jiang Li's disciple, shouldn't have died so quietly, but the other party obviously couldn't wait, and Chang Ming gradually recovered. Cultivation level, Yun Weisi's departure from Jiuchongyuan has already disrupted the other party's plan, once in chaos, every step will be in chaos.
"Who is colluding with the demon? Does senior know any clues?"
Xie Chunxi has obviously also thought of the many shady scenes that may be hidden behind it.
Can monsters alone set up such a big game?
Obviously impossible.
Then the one who cooperates with them must be a huge force that they did not expect before.
After all, Jinque Taoist Palace is not big, Xie Chunxi didn't have any worries when he asked this sentence, like Ku He was born in Qingyun Temple, he had to think too much.
Although Xie Chunxi thought of the same thing, even more than he thought, Ku He would never ask this question lightly.
But Chang Ming didn't give them too much time to think, so he directly mentioned two things.
"Wanjian Xianzong, and Wanxiang Palace."
As expected, Xie Chunxi and the others were taken aback.
Although these two sects also have the word Wan, they have no kinship or affiliation, just because the Vientiane Palace claims to be astronomical at the top, Yin and Yang at the bottom, and the meaning of everything, and the Wanjian Immortal Sect is surrounded by all the monks in the world. A mountain that does not pass.
Everyone in the world says that being able to join the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect is equivalent to shortening your path to reach heaven in half. The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect is a place where geniuses gather, and it is also a forest of strong fighters. Xiao Zangfeng, as Jiang Li's direct disciple, certainly Outstanding talent is the pride that the Xiao family often talks about, but there are three or five geniuses like him in Wanjian Xianzong.
As for ordinary sects, it is difficult to find one.
Even if Buddhism and Taoism are of different streams, Buddhism maintains corresponding etiquette towards top sects like Wanjian Xianzong, and will not easily offend them.
That’s all for the Vientiane Palace. The disciples of this sect appear and disappear. They are only heard of by their name and rarely seen in the rivers and lakes. Everyone is not impressed, but Chang Ming actually pointed the finger at the Wanjian Immortal Sect. Everyone didn’t know how to react for a while. .
Xie Chunxi and the others were a little embarrassed.
Going against Wanjian Xianzong is almost something they never thought of.
Chang Ming smiled, walked up to Yun Hai without saying much, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Go back first."
The reaction of the other party was very real. They couldn't express doubts about Wanjian Xianzong because of Chang Ming's few words, and Chang Ming would not force them to be filled with righteous indignation, but once the seeds of doubt were planted, it was difficult to remove them.
Taking the world as a chess game, Jiang Li's plan spanning decades will surface little by little, and finally let everyone see the clues.
Chang Ming is not in a hurry.
He once used his body as a chess game, was exiled in the underworld, escaped death, lost all his cultivation, and was criticized by thousands of people.
There is no way to retreat, and when he returns to the world, he is gradually finding the truth of the year and returning to the peak of the year.
The one who is in a hurry now should be Jiang Li.
Yun Hai narrowed his eyes, looking half asleep.
He was weak, but outsiders couldn't see it.
But Chang Ming saw it, he held Yun Hai with one hand, and let the other party take most of the weight on him.
Xu Jingxian saw that he was about to leave, so she hurriedly called out: "Minglang!"
As soon as the words fell, Yunhai glanced at her.
"Senior! Future master!"
Xu Jingxian immediately changed her words and grabbed Chang Ming's sleeve.
"I ran here and there all day, and I was so exhausted that I finally uprooted the three hidden piles. Wouldn't you give me some reward?"
If she wanted to act like a baby, she would be able to soften people's bones. From the beginning to the end, she was submissive and responsive to every request.
It's a pity that Chang Ming is not an ordinary person.
"I remembered, there is still your old friend here, Xie Chunxi, Jinque Taoist Palace, you must be familiar with it?"
He showed a suddenly realized expression, and he kindly pointed to Xie Chunxi after he finished speaking.
"Headmaster Xie, you met a little **** your way back in the past, and you said that she was born with a flattering bone, and when she grows up, she will bring disaster to the country and the people, and she is not suitable for cultivating the Tao. Do you remember? Now this little girl is in front of you. Coincidentally, she is now Became a demon cultivator, but still see the leader of Lingbo Peak of the Blood Sect, you reunited after a long absence, it seems that you have a lot to talk about, Xu Xianzi can slowly catch up with Master Xie."
Xu Jingxian: ...
How could she not recognize Xie Chunxi? When she first came in, she immediately targeted the person who changed her destiny with a word in the past, but it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, let alone in front of Changming, Xu Jingxian was planning to treat him as Xie Chunxi It doesn't exist, and after that, I will secretly look for an opportunity to settle the account, so that the other party can't survive or die, but Chang Ming tells the truth.
Naturally, Xie Chunxi didn't recognize Xu Jingxian from the 18th Women's University, he was still shocked: "It's you?"
From the corner of Xu Jingxian's eyes, she caught a glimpse of Chang Ming leaving with Yun Hai, and was about to chase after him, when Xie Chunxi said again—
"You really entered the magic gate!"
Just as Xu Jingxian lifted her footsteps, she immediately turned in a different direction. She made a formula with her bare hands, and as quickly as lightning, she directly pointed at Xie Chunxi's face.
If she doesn't sharpen the opponent's head today, she won't be called Xu Jingxian!
